Install-Module -Name AWS.Tools.Common

Credentials

Credentials are stored at

• On Linux/Mac: ~/.aws/credentials
• On Windows: C:\Users\username.aws\credentials

Create New Profile

Set-AWSCredential `
-AccessKey AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA `
-SecretKey ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz `
-StoreAs MyNewProfile

Session Profile

Use Set-AWSCredential to specify a default profile for a particular session. This profile overrides any default profile for the duration of the session. We recommend this if you want to use a custom-named profile in your session instead of the current default profile.

Set-AWSCredential -ProfileName MyProfileName

Import EC2 Key Pair

$publickey=[Io.File]::ReadAllText("C:\Users\TestUser\.ssh\id_rsa.pub")
$pkbase64 = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($publickey))
Import-EC2KeyPair -KeyName Example-user-key -PublicKey $pkbase64
